Obama created ISIS, imports criminals
and incurable diseases using Quartering,
violates every Constitutional principle that existed,
and arms al Qaeda ... and no one in DC cares or has
cared.

They will never care about this.

His top priority is stirring up racial tensions to motivate the Democrap base for 2016.

Isn’t that the top priority of most Americans?

Give our president a break. There are only 24 hours in a day, even on Martha’s Vineyard.

Besides, he’s still gearing up to ‘get to the bottom’ of an IRS scandal that broke 750 days ago.

Remember the ‘flexibility’ comment from Obama to Medvdev. Obama is not getting played by the communists of Russia and China, he is aiding and is one of them.

Of course he knew about it. He was probably helping them.

The same people that can’t firewall personnel data from the Chinese, or construct a healthcare website for less than a billion dollars now control the internet. What could go wrong?

I can hack/exploit the Social Security Administration and obtain who evers Social Security Number I want.

When I called them and reported the hack they treated me like I was from the loony house.

Same thing with the FSA.

Rhetorical or is the author one of the many/few who still think him allowing and causing the US to be destroyed is not on purpose?

The outflow of data from OPM computers is still ongoing, and there is apparently two separate agencies that are still experiencing a current outflow of information. The only solution is take computers off the internet, and to isolate them while at the same time creating two separate networks as the old one is taken down....

What would Obama want with the most personal details of every government workers' life?

Surely you don't think he'd use it for extortion or blackmail at some point down the road, do you?

This is the biggest eff up by this administration...well since its last colossal eff up. The long term damage from this will not be mitigated for a long time.

Something more than just identity theft?

You could say that, it’s a military strategy.

This strategy was tested with the military a year ago.

ISIS had the names of members of the military and was making threats against them and their families.

Nice little test to find out how many military personnel wouldn’t reenlist if they knew their families would be threatened while they were deployed overseas.

In a time on national crisis, how many govt employees wont show up for their govt job if their families are in danger just because they went to work?
